    There are three Holy Wells in the Parish of Clondalkin.
    There one in Clondalkin and two holy wells at St. Catherine's on the western side of the Parish and on the borders of Kildare.

    The Holy Well in Clondalkin is in a field to the east of the village of Clondalkin, and of the Catholic Church.
    It is called Saint Bridget's Well. The water of this well cures sore eyes and other ailments also.
    Those suffering from diseases visited the well and prayed there.
